Hosts with a love of design

Lucie and Sebastian have been designing special places with dedication and a flair for aesthetics since 2013. From the Bahnwärterhaus in Vogtland to the Haus Schwarzwaldstrand in Bad Herrenalb, they have created retreats with character. In May 2024, the deckhouses in Oberes Gaistal will open, another project that combines nature and design in a special way.

Anyone looking for privately run accommodation with style will find an oasis close to nature with a personal touch and a team of hosts who immediately make you feel at home.
